Where have I been & where am I going?

Shopping shopping shopping, food, clothes, hats, shoes, bags, fascinator....yes the wedding is a week today. Ahhhhhh, yipeeee, ummmm. Mother of the bride, in Lydias words 'gosh how droll that sounds' I try to not post too much personal stuff, but this is just way too exciting to keep bottled in. I have 5 new outfits...heehee how silly and some really dodgy shoes which I cant walk in..yet..I gave up heels years ago but I must wear them and this very odd thing in my hair called a fascinator, which might end up looking a bit wild if I get time to add bits to it to personalise it, imagine..Lutradur...Evolon...heat gun and soldering iron, do I dare???

We are travelling to Scotland, as its a joining of countries Sweden & England. Logic goes out of the window when it comes to weddings. Its outside in a ruined Abbey, oh so beautiful and romantic.
The clothes are divine. I wept when I saw my son in his tail coat, so very handsome
Wish them well and Ill be back sometime as We are having a holiday visiting Holy Island, I will lots of pictures I hope

Im wearing navy blue, it has been very stressful finding an outfit which didnt make me look daft. Tall and large does not work with a vast amount of colours.

My husband has nagged for years, wear something bright. Well he nearlly had a fit when I pranced out of the changing room with a 1950's style off white dress with huge bright blue flowers on and then a shift dress in bright yellow and lime green. Sort of proved a point!!!

Tasteful I shall be if a tad boring ....soldering iron keeps coming back to mind, embossing powder!!!

See you soon, cant promise to blog, but will if i can, lets hope for some good clear weather, but we have huge umbrellas and it will be fun x﻿
